If it were the spy or one of her emissaries, she was powerless now to do any harm, and under hi« late orders find the rigorous vigilance df his sentinels she could not leave 1 he lines —or indeed the house. She probably knew this as well as he did; it was, there fore, no doubt, only an accidental in trusion of one of the servants. He re entered the room and «torxl for a few moment* by the window looking over the moonlit ridge. The sounds of dis tant cannon had long since ceased. Wide awake and refreshed by the keen morning air, which alone of all cre ated things wemed to have shaken the burden of the dreadful yesterday from Its dewy wings, he turned away and lit a candle on the table. As he wa« rebuckling his sword In-lt he saw a place of paper lying at the foot of the lied from which he had just risen. Tak ing it to the candle he read in a rough ly scrawled band: '•You are ax hep when you should I m * ou the march. You have no time to lose. Before daybreak the supports of the column you have been foolishly resist ing will be upon you. From oue who would save you, but hates your cause.” For a moment he w as transfixed. The handw riling was unknown,andevident- l.v disguised. It w as not the purport of the message that alarmed him, but the terrible suspicion that flushed upon him that it came from .Miss Faulkner! She had tailed in her attempt to pass through the enemy's lines—or she had never tried to! She had deceived him, or she had thought better of her chiv alrous impulse and now tried to miti gate her second treachery by this sec ond warning, and he had let her mes senger Cscafie him!

But he only said: "You forget that I did not know you were the «py, nor do I believe that she suspected you were my wife." "Why should she?" she said, almost fiercely. "1 am known among these people only by the name of Benham— my maiden name. Y’e«! you can take m* out and shoot me under that name. Without disgracing yours.
